Ark of Mystery Slot

The 'Ark Of The Covenant' is a chest that held Tablets engraved with the Ten Commandments. According to the Hebrew Bible, the Ark was constructed by the Israelites while they were camping out in the Sinai Desert, after they fled Egypt...

The 'Ark of Mystery' is a 5 Reel/20 Payline video slot from Quickspin/Playtech providers which offers an adventure inside the Egyptian mysterious catacombs where the Female explorer, searching for the majestic Ark. Surviving this quest might bring up, Multipliers of up to 22x/Wild Re-Spins, plus the rewards can reach up to 6.000x bet. Of course it sounds Wonderful!

The only downside, is in the low paytable and especially in the Multipliers, which hardly reach up to 4x!

Ark of Mystery is powered by Quickspin and has 5 reels and 20 paylines. Playable from $0.20 to $100 a spin across all devices. The theme is some ancient Egypt classic, with the obvious hunting for hidden treasures and even though the slot does not have a free-spins the re-spin feature is enough for the big win with increasing multipliers.


Graphically, Ark of Mystery looks brilliant and with the Quickspin orange signature, turn into that blink colour like these Ancient gold makes it even greater. Like the story of Indiana Jones and the raiders of the Lost Ark, symbols on the reels include A, K, Q, J and 10 royals as well as the Eye of Horus, scarab beetles and ankhs. The highest paying symbol pays x50 your stake which is one of the better pay tables I have seen, normally the maximum payout for 5 of kind you see if x10 or so.


The ark is the wild symbol and substitutes for all other and appears only on the 3 middle reels. The ark symbol will be held, and a re-spin occurs, and you need to land another ark symbol and the feature ends when no more Ark symbols land on the reels. Additionally, you can land up to 3 fully stacked wild reels with Ark symbols which can give you big wins and maximum win 6 re-spins which will give guaranteed wins at least compare to 15 empty spins on another slot.


There’s also a multiplier booster feature where the multiplier can increase to 22x if you’re lucky. The multiplier increases every time a new multiplier symbol lands on the 5th reel and each symbol increases the multiplier by 1.


Over all this slot is a different one from the standard you get out there. I mean you have start bust and Berryburst and the likes, but there are only 3 re-spins where this one can give you up to 6 re-spins means it can pay more.


Hit a couple of x100 wins, but nothing major. I like the game and seems to be one of Quickspin good ones.

Nope, we are not talking about an ark like Noah’s Ark, but of a chest, which is also known as an ark. So this Ark Of Mystery game from Quickspin is all about an ark that can replicate itself one extra symbol at a time on the same reel, eventually becoming a fully stacked Wild Reel. Appearing only only reels 2, 3 and 4, a maximum of 3 full Wild Reels can therefore be achieved at any one time. Honestly speaking though, the Wilds don’t double any wins with it, they don’t even pay anything for themselves, so getting good wins would totally depend on getting good multipliers for any particular spin, if lucky, otherwise, all wins would only be multiplied by 1x.

Briefly, the win values of all the symbols in this game aren’t good at all - they are very low in fact, with the top Lady symbol paying only 50x the total bet for getting any 5 of her. There aren’t any Scatter symbols to provide additional winning chances, so there aren’t any free spins feature games either – argh! All you get is that Wild Ark Respin feature, with up to 6 free Respins. If there’s going to be any big wins, then they can only come from these Respins with up to 21x multiplier. From my calculations, the best possible single win would be 1050x the total bet. Definitely not a lot, and definitely not to my liking either!

Okay, so how do you get to that 21x multiplier? Very simple, but not simple to get, hehehe. During each Respin feature, each appearing Wild Ark symbol would increase the multiplier by 1x, reaching up to 21x on the last 6th Respin. In my play sessions, I could only get up to the 5x multiplier, giving me a fairly decent win of 164x my bet amount, which is not too bad really, but still very far from being any good! Yeah, with more plays and with better luck, a much bigger win would indeed be possible, but no thanks for me, I don’t think I would take that risk! Hahaha.
